Via Ferratas

“A via ferrata is the connection point between hiking and climbing” (Michele Dalla Palma)

The fantastic thing about via ferratas is that they allow you to access, climb and traverse amazing mountain scenery without needing prior climbing experience.

“Via Ferrata” comes from Italian and can be translated as “iron road” or “iron way.”
The main component of any Via ferrata is a thick steel cable that is fixed on the rock with bolts drilled every few meters. This is the main “lifeline” providing safety and limiting falls.

In addition, beside or below the cable, there are metal steps and rock features that make climbing easier. Via Ferratas routes often have overhanging sections, bridges of different types, ladders, zip lines and chains.

All of the routes we guide are fully equipped and safe to navigate when using the correct equipment -and using the equipment correctly.

In terms of your personal equipment, we provide top of the range harness, helmets, lanyards and anchor slings with carabiners so that you can have a rest or pause with confidence at any time. All our equipment is commercially made and EN certified.
